Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a magnetic disk apparatus, method for assembling an actuator mechanism thereof and an assembling unit of the actuator mechanism, wherein a plurality of head arms (4) are installed integrally onto an arm supporting block (1) and a head assembly (6) is fixed to these head arms (4) by use of connecting means (9-14). The invention also includes an assembling method and assembling unit suitable for installing the head assembly (6) to the head arm (4) in the case that a plurality of head arms (4) are installed integrally onto the arm supporting block (1). Since a plurality of head arms (4) are installed integrally onto the arm supporting block (1), assembly thereof is simple, the cost is decreased, and it is also possible effectively to reduce a latent off-track of the magnetic head (7).
